Eetion, like Priam Albion, his daughter and his wife can be added to the family for a brief second through the Tombstone of Life and Death. If the game is paused, and the player directs him to do something, the player can have him stay for a bit longer. But in order for Eetion to reappear permanently, his "Death Token" must be removed through SimPE. According to his SimDNA in SimPE, his hair was blond before it turned grey. According to his age data, he had 15 days left in the elderlife stage when he died.

Although Eetion has memories of his wife, unlike most pre-made deceased Sims from Veronaville, he doesn't have the memory of Andromache's birth. His facial structure is very similar but not identical to the 16th face template in Create a Sim. All Eetion's facial features are ever so slightly customized.

In Greek mythology, Eetion was the king of Thebe, and father to Andromache, wife of Hector. Andromache and Hector appeared in Shakespeare's Troilus and Cressida.
